    Level sync UP enemies not players down.

    As newbie i HATE/DESPITE with PASSION i feel disgusted doing dungeons/fates which REMOVE my buttons.

    I outlevel MSQ by like 12 levels already and i only DO MSQ and blue quests.

    How are newbies supposed to learn to play when in little combat we got half time we lose our buttons like ???


    IT FEEELS bad.

    Right now i am send to The Thousand Maws of Toto-Rak = lvl 24.
    I level up get new buttons then i am sent to lower level dungeons to not use these news buttons feels so nice /sarcasm.
    And seeing multiple people around outlvling it one person is here on 47 like ???

    Strike Dummy, Palace of the Dead. Catch up in MSQ. It's not really an issue.

    deep dungeons like palace of the dead are possibly the worst place to learn any job. its impossible to practice your opener on mobs, and you also cant practice aoe on them because people tend to single or double pull

    Deep dungeons aren't there to help you master your class though. They are there to power level alt classes up. You can practice using each ability and see how they work.

    Are you on one of the "preferred" servers where your exp is boosted? I made an alt character on my server which doesn't have the boost and didn't use any of the exp boost gear and I didn't out-level the MSQ much at all. I had some friends level up on my server and there were a few times the MSQ got ahead of them and needed to grind some dungeons or PotD for 1 level.

    Level syncing the enemies up would be a problem, because when you do a duty roulette, you get matched with people whose first time it is and who are still at that lower level. They would be fighting enemies a lot higher level than them (scaled to your level), so you would have a level 24 fight level 80 enemies when you are level 80. That doesn't show much consideration for them.

    Think of it as that when you sync down, you are doing the rotation for that expansion or level range. It's really good later on because when you are level 80 you don't have to feel like you are missing out on what it was like in a previous expansion, because your rotation changes to mostly what it was in that expansion.

    You're complaining about content that is 6+ years old, and natural power creep (potency changes over time, TP doesn't exist anymore, etc).

    Even the Thousand Yawns of Snore-Rak is a 9-year old dungeon (it was originally a 1.35 dungeon).

    Every expansion they always re-tune the previous expansion for everything to be less potent, bosses have less HP, damage is less, etc. To really experience how the content was designed for you needed to be current.

    While it would be a neat concept to have things scale up to us at all times that would require a different coding completely and it would require a whole lot more balancing. The fact that they would have to completely recode everything from ARR to ShB alone makes it an unreasonable and daunting task. Then instead of balancing these dungeons, fates, trials, and instances of the like to a single specific small level range they would have to balance them all to every level there is, and then do it again every time the level cap is increased. Once more, this makes the task unreasonable and daunting for no real reason when their time could be better spent elsewhere like continuing to streamline ARR, working on new features, fixing Hrothgar, and all sorts of other things.
